    But wouldnt ‘passenger affected as normal’ just mean that they follow the normal vehicle destroyed rules?

  • Nat replied to the topic Units on transport in the forum Bolt Action 5 years, 5 months ago

    So we have in the instructions for massive damage this quote “(unless the vehicle is destroyed by the first result, of course)”

    So if I get to apply 2 resutls unless its destroyed why would I be able to roll all D6 +1 flamerthower damage hits even if (for example) the first one destroys the vehicle?

     

    Now my under standing is shooting V…[Read more]

    @nI know – good point I never said anything about order of resolution 😛

     

    @stuart…except the part of the rules that literally says don’t apply anymore damage results and remove the vehicle as soon as you get a damage result!

    Hi bill, no it doesn’t affect the hand size… it is just removed from the deck before the game starts so you start with one fewer card.

    If you download the faq or read the updated rules in air strike you’ll find a dirgam that shows you -yes the front arrow must be in the rear arc to get tailing

  • Nat replied to the topic Units on transport in the forum Bolt Action 5 years, 5 months ago

    No the unit is NOT hit by the weapon that hits the transport vehicle… they are hit by sharpnel and debris of the vehicle.   THis is why you get get PEN bonus to the wound rolls.  Source is the FAQ.

     

    As they are not hit by the flamethrower but rather the vehicle they where inside they only test if they lose 50%

    sorry only seem to have posted half of what I was going to say!

     

    The extrapulation (as I dont have the peninuslar box either) is that they are made to fit WLs rules… that is a battalion of 24 models with 4 grenadiers, 4 voltiguers and a command group as thats what the pictures on the store show (which seem to be pretty accurate)

  • Nat replied to the topic 1809 French in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 5 months ago

    Warlord late war Battalions are 24 single piece models, with pack and heads separate  8 which had epaulettes.  There are multiple different Shakos

  • Nat replied to the topic Rules Question Thread in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 5 months ago

    That makes sense, however in the Clash of Eagles light infantry do have the special note – skirmish – yet you also have Russians Line Units with the rule ‘poor skirmisher’ which states that they dont benefit from the +1 bonus for skirmishers shooting…. when they can only do that in mixed formation (Russians dont have the option to form compisite…[Read more]

  • Personally I stick the metal model to the bottom of the base then fill it up with a putty to levelish of the metal base.

    Other approaches are to cut the metal base off and then pin the model to the base, or trim the metal down

  • Nat replied to the topic Rules Question Thread in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 6 months ago

    So we have 2 conflicting absolutes… on one hand tiny units section says they can only can form march column (but only on roads and tracks… unlike all other units that can form it any where) or their default of skirmish order.   Then on the other hand you have the statement that all regular units can form square.

     

    personally I’d take the sp…[Read more]

    The major Chaplin is found in the konflict47 part of the store.

    but to re iterate what IO said..any officer should do with proper painting

  • Nat replied to the topic Rules Question Thread in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 6 months ago

    Ok got my pdf rule versionon to the iPad!

    Sorry the formation is just called skirmish order as stated pg 22 in the v2 pdf.   Pg 24 makes it quite clear that tiny units can only be in skirmish order, so they can’t form square.

    also in Napoleonic you can have normal and large units in skirmish order…

  • Nat replied to the topic Rules Question Thread in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 6 months ago

    Do tiny infantry have must form square?  I thought they could only form skirmish formation?

  • Nat replied to the topic Tanks reaction fire in the forum Bolt Action 5 years, 6 months ago

    just to clarify  turrets can rotate unless they’ve suffered a turret jam result then they are locked in to a set arc….although I know not all clubs play the turret jam rules…

  • Nat replied to the topic Tanks reaction fire in the forum Bolt Action 5 years, 6 months ago

    A tank is a unit the same as an MMG team or a rifle squad and doesnt have an exception in the rule to how orders work….Basically if it doesnt have an ambush order or no order next to it then no it cant reaction fire.

     

  • Nat replied to the topic French Legere units in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 6 months ago

    They are rare if using the lists to create your army

    In Albion Triumphant 1, (mid + late), and clash of Eagles  they are limited to 1 regiment per brigade (so you could have up to 4 /5 battalions in a single brigade as Legere) and  in AT2 only 1 in 4 battalions can be upgraded to Legere across the whole army!

     

  • Nat replied to the topic French Legere units in the forum Black Powder 5 years, 6 months ago

    They dont lower the shooting dice in skirmish order as the whole unit skirmishes.  Its only mixed formations that drop shooting down to 1.

    Legere units can be ordered in to Line, mixed line, assault coloumn, mixed assault coloumn, square, coloumn of companies (Clash of Eagles), Marching Coloumn or Skirmish formation.

  • Intresting conundrum here…. I suppose because I’ve only played the game against beer & preztel gamers or historical gamers we’ve always tried lone wolf or pairs … we’ve also not played at about 600 points .. so 4 -5 planes with a mix of pilot skills

    Now I’d think about dropping the points but not the board size… also play around with what…[Read more]
